Roses
Shroud Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Roses bloom on your skin so sweetly
Scented with your heart beating for me
Sighing, dying within this embrace
A thousand loves in one kiss taken away
Trembling with the thought of it
Drowning in roses

Roses fall from my lips for you
Taste the love we share eternally two
Sighing, dying within this embrace
Never have such things been shared or felt this way
Trembling with the thought of it
Drowning in roses





Trembling with the thought of it
Drowning in roses, roses...
